"Replace all seven of them?" Cameron looked a little hesitant.
However, Director Cameron did not place much importance on these seven actors. They were just extras casually picked from Hollywood. Cameron did not care about them at all. If he wanted to replace them, so be it. There was no need to offend a big investor like Boss Jia.
However, Director Cameron also had his own worries. He frowned and said, "Mr. Jia, there are less than three days left until June 1st. Three days later, the worldwide broadcast of the sinking of the Titanic will be broadcasted live. Therefore, the last part of the movie must be shot in three days."
"If you fire these seven people, I'm afraid that you won't be able to find seven actors who meet the requirements in three days."
Director Cameron's worries were very reasonable. After all, the worldwide broadcast of the sinking of the Titanic on June 1st had been strongly promoted by 20th Century Fox. The date could not be changed.
It was indeed very difficult for Director Cameron to find seven Hua Xia actors in three days.
"Director Cameron, you don't have to worry about this. You can count on me." Boss Jia smiled and said, "At most, I can help you find seven Hua Xia actors in one day. They will all be real Hua Xia actors. Only they can film the elegance of real Hua Xia actors. "
"Okay." Director Cameron thought for a while. He felt that he had already offended Boss Jia once, so he could not offend him again. After all, Director Cameron had many ideas for future movies, all of which were waiting for the investment of rich people. Boss Jia was the investor who was the most straightforward and the most creative. Director Cameron still wanted to maintain a cooperative relationship with Boss Jia.
Therefore, Director Cameron said, "Mr. Jia, you can go and find actors, but I have to say something first. If the shooting can't be completed in three days, then I have to delete all the scenes related to the Huaxia people. The most important thing is to ensure the integrity and quality of the movie's plot. Can you understand me?"
"No problem." Boss Jia smiled and said, "As long as you're not satisfied with the final result, you can cut it out. I have no objections!"
"Thank you, Mr. Jia!" Cameron nodded, then said something to the assistant director. The assistant director nodded.

"Wow! Is that Director Cameron?" the Asian actors exclaimed when they saw Cameron not far away.
Director Cameron was like a god to these people. As they peeked at him, they imagined that their acting skills would be recognized by Cameron, and then they would become his exclusive actors. Finally, they would be successful and famous, and they would become Hollywood stars in the future.
"Strange, why does Director Cameron keep talking to that Hua Xia? An actor from the Republic of Korea asked curiously.
"What's so strange about that? This guy made such a big trouble. Director Cameron must be very angry. He must be blaming him now. I guess he will be fired from the crew soon!" the actor from South Korea said proudly.
Just as these people were discussing what kind of punishment Boss Jia would receive, the assistant director walked in front of them and said lightly, "Guys, you can go to the finance department later and settle the payment for these days!"
"It's okay. There's no hurry. We can settle the payment after the shooting!" These people did not realize the seriousness of the matter. They thought it was just a simple payment, so they said with a smile.
Then they heard the assistant director say impatiently, "What do you mean by there's no hurry? Your shooting is over. After you settle the payment, take a boat back to Hawaii. Your shooting is over! "
"What?" These people realized that something was wrong. One of them said, "Director, we didn't even shoot? How can it be over? "
"Yeah, we didn't even shoot a single scene. How can it be over?"
These people suddenly became anxious. One had to know that Asian actors had always been at the bottom of the ladder in Hollywood. They were much worse off than black actors.
Because there were too few Asian actors in Hollywood movies, many Asian actors couldn't get jobs in Hollywood. Even if it was a minor role, there were dozens of Asian actors fighting for it.
This time, they didn't know how much effort they had put in to join the cast of "Titanic". This was one of the hottest movies in the world recently. One could imagine how much impact it would have on their future if they could appear in the movie.
Now, the assistant director told them that their shooting was over and they could go home after settling the payment. How could they accept this?
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? You didn't film a single scene, so naturally, there will be other actors to replace you in this scene. If it weren't for our director, Cameron, being a good person, you wouldn't even get a single cent. "
"Okay, hurry up and go to the finance department. There's only one cruise back this afternoon. If you miss it, you can only take a speedboat!" The assistant director said angrily.
"Why?"
"Why did it become like this? What did we do wrong? Director, you have to give us a reason! " These actors were in despair. They looked at the assistant director in pain and asked at the same time.
"Sigh!" The assistant director's heart was relatively soft. Seeing the desperate expressions of these actors, he thought for a moment and said, "Do you know what a stupid thing you just did?"
"No …"
"What stupid thing did we do? We really don't know! "These people asked blankly.
"Sigh, you shouldn't have talked back to Mr. Jia and argued with him. You shouldn't have exposed the fact that none of you are Hua Xia. Now, with one word from him, you are all replaced!" The assistant director sighed.
"What!" Everyone was shocked. They never thought that the person who fired them was actually the young Hua Xia who looked at most in his twenties. How was this possible?!
"Forget it, I'll let you know. Mr. Jia just now is the investor of the entire production team. 70% of our production team's funds were invested by Mr. Jia. In order to satisfy his desire to act, he came to the production team to make a cameo appearance. Instead of supporting him, you dissed him. It's strange that he would want you! " The assistant director sighed, then shook his head and left. "Remember, hurry up and go to the finance department to settle the bill. Otherwise, you won't even get this little bit of remuneration!"
"A Hua Xia is actually the investor of the entire production team!" The seven of them were dumbfounded. They never thought that they would die at the hands of a young man from Huaxia.
"Director, I'm a descendant of Hua Xia. I'm from Wanwan. Wanwan is a part of Hua Xia!" Suddenly, the actor from Wanwan jumped up and shouted after the assistant director, "Director, please go and tell Mr. Jia that I'm a Hua Xia. My whole family and our whole province are Hua Xia!!!"
Unfortunately, the assistant director couldn't be bothered with him. In the end, the seven people could only leave Titanic in despair. Although they still tried to enter various Hollywood production teams, their identity as Asians made it difficult for them. In the end, they could only go home and find their mothers. The movie had nothing to do with them anymore.
